We're going skiing in the alps at the end of January, and my friend needs to rent a pair of boots for the week. Is there a best option for where to go? I think we have skis for him, just not boots in the correct size.
In reply to Bob_the_Builder: Fairly sure I'd seen ski hire in Areches when I've been there & a quick Google shows that both Intersport & Sport 2000 both have shops there
If you have a car, try a run into Beaufort - some nice little restaurants there. Plus, try use the village tow up to Les Contamines (take a right turn just before Hautluce and head forthe hydro station) or the village tow from Hauteluce itself up to Les Saisses. I think they are all part of Espace Diamant so some version of the lift pass should get you up there.
